AB - Crowd movement studies often use controlled conditions and participants without disabilities. While this approach is reliable, it does not fully reflect real-world conditions and the influence of physical ability as well as secondary tasks. This study examined how these factors affect the headway-speed relationship in single-file movement, including pedestrians and two wheelchair users. Participants followed an experimenter and sometimes engaged in a secondary task (using a phone). Results showed that wheelchair users maintained a constant speed and kept longer minimal headway compared to pedestrians. The secondary tasks did not affect the headway-speed relationship. More research is needed on the implications of mobility profiles and secondary tasks for pedestrian movement in diverse conditions.
